A single-speaker YouTube video (Eric Deeran) advising editors on how to grow an editing business by shifting from being the lone technician to a business owner. The speaker emphasizes hiring other editors of equal skill, delegating work, releasing control, and focusing on client acquisition to scale the business.
I'm an editor, and I'm trying to run a business. Yeah. So because you are the technician. Right. So you're a editor. If you want to be a business owner, you need to find other editors who are just as good as you. So then you can delegate that, and then you can focus on getting more clients and building more building more of a client base to then pay those editors. Right. And so I think that's another thing, is a lot of people want to be the technician, but you kind of have to make a decision in the beginning, like, do I want to only be the one doing this thing, or do I want to step take a step back, maybe, and start hiring and releasing control so other people can start stepping in and doing that for me? You know, that's true.
